Apply here for The Sun’s first Summer Internship Scheme

TODAY The Sun launches its first Summer Internship Scheme – to give the next generation a taste of working at Britain’s top newspaper and website.

The internships, for 18 to 25-year-olds, are available in roles including reporting, news-gathering, design and production, across print and online.

Placements will last up to 12 weeks and be based mainly in London. But interns could also work at our Manchester or Glasgow offices.

Don’t be put off by the cost. We will pay anyone who gets a place up to the London Living Wage, and for London interns we’ve negotiated with London South Bank University to offer discounted accommodation.

There are roles in news, pictures, sport and showbiz. We are also looking for future social media managers, graphic designers and video editors.

A Sun spokesman said: “We’re delighted to offer the next generation the chance to experience life in a working newsroom and learn from our brilliant team.

“We hope these internships will represent the first step towards successful newspaper careers.”

Interns will work at the newspaper or on our website, which last week was confirmed as the UK’s biggest newspaper site.
